NEW VANTAGE OWNER - SQUEEKY BRAKES
Discussion
if you have an early car then it may not yet have had the anti-squeal shims in behind tha pads ...cant remember when they started to be standard fitment
other than that, its just a case of pads need to be bedded in properly and used hard from time to time
try finding a straight, quiet bit of road
do 2 or 3 stops from 40-10mph, then 60-10mph then try a couple say 70mph - 0mph as hard as you can
that should clean the crap off and bed them in nicely

The advice about braking to a stop from speeds is spot on. Bear in mind that if your car is a garage princess you will need to do this when you bring her out of the garage. I get this if I leave mine undriven for two weeks....
But then I warm her up and carry out a few emergency stops and bobs yer uncle.
